Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

For example

Que souhaiteraient certaines personnes pour la gymnastique et le patinage artistique? "

vs

L’article vous donne-t-il envie de visiter l’île de La Réunion? Pourquoi?

[red laurel]

Dans ces deux cas, il y a inversion. In those two cases, there are inversions

[raven gull]

Both use inversion, it's just that the second repeats the pronoun while the first doesn't. I feel like the first should repeat the pronoun though as it's not a pronoun

« Que certaines personnes souhaiteraient-elles pour la gymnastique et le patinage artistique ? »

[bold adder]

Yes I misspoke

Why does one use the pronoun? oh So you both think the first case -should- repeat the pronoun?

[raven gull]

I think so yes

Where did you get the examples?

[bold adder]

My French book lmao

[raven gull]

Aha, I just looked it up and it seems that it's possible for « que » to have inversion without repeating the pronoun so that might be it

I personally repeat pronouns just to avoid any mistakes when I'm doing inversion

[bold adder]

Oh good ole French and their repeated pronouns
